Striker? At one, BUT HIT

Dragon Link? STILL ALIVE AND KICKING BABYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Despite the various attempts by Konami to kill this deck, Dragon Link is still somehow playable! Granted, it's not as powerful as it used to be, but I think the deck is at a very fair place now due to the sheer technical skill required to pilot the deck.

At first, learning the deck for Saionji was incredibly frustrating since the decks I found online all included a garbage Dragunity engine post Elpy ban to compensate for it, but eventually I stumbled across a list without it and tried it out.

Thankfully, it was a lot less fragile and more consistent then the awful Dragunity version, so I was basically piloting that version of the deck and learnt the usual combos whilst tweaking the deck.

Even though I struggled at the beginning, I grew to really love this deck and I think it's fantastic to play with. It deck feels very rewarding to learn and it's very satisfying to play due to it's high ceiling and sequences of play that are available to you.

The disruption and interaction in this deck is also fantastic, you can very easily shut down your opponent's turn due to cards such as Spheres, Savage, and Tidying.

So, after many weeks of play testing, I think I can safely say I mastered Dragon Link, and wish to share it what I learnt with all of you!
